Odertalsperre Scenic Route

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A scenic path along the Oder dam. The route is easy to drive and leads to or partly through the campsite. This is not a problem outside of the season.

Brockenbahn Steam Railway

Highlight • Monument

Here on Goetheweg you drive right next to the rails and thus have the opportunity to observe and photograph the great, old HSB locomotives up close.

Brocken Summit

Highlight • Summit

The highest peak in the Harz above the tree line. Certainly not the most exciting climb on a mountain bike, but still a must, simply because it's there. ;-)
